Was playing today and everyone on the server got massive, sustained lag. 300-400 ping for a majority of the players. Half the people on the server left. One guy had 37 ping and he was able to just camp blu's spawn as a pyro. nobody on red could do anything about him because nobody could move and shoot correctly. It happened just a few minutes before 8PM Pacific time.
Just letting you know because if I were running a server I would want to know, I hope that's ok. Another fellow in the game said the server has a problem with lag. I enjoy the LotusClan servers because I don't get auto switched when I'm playing with my brother.
Have a good evening.

Hi! I play in the 32 player dustbowl east coast/west coast/texas/chicago servers as well as the 32 player texas badwater server and there's been major lag the last few days to the point where it's unplayable and everyone leaves. Please help! Thanks!

Ban Request - $0unD 0f M@dNe$$
Steam ID - STEAM_0:1:15486403
Date - December 16 - 2 am EST
This guy named $0unD 0f M@dNe$$ comes in and starts votebanning everyone, and starts spamming the mic and chat to tell everyone to voteban some random person (Tank). He does this for like 20 minutes, saying fake things like "Tank is cheating, voteban him" or "Tank is lagging the server, voteban him". It's obvious he doesn't actually think he's cheating, because in team voice chat he said "alright, who should we pick to get banned? How about Tank". Eventually the cattle in the server votebanned him out. As soon as I spoke out against it he turned to me and told everyone to ban me. The whole time he's giggling.
The server also started lagging REALLY badly, but I can't prove it was him. But I've seen enough trolls in my time to suspect that he was using a console spam attack to lag the server, and tried to shift the blame to someone else by just yelling at everyone.
It's really frustrating because the people playing the game don't give a shit at all and just voteban whoever they're told to. Meanwhile this guy is spamming the server and almost crashing it with his lag attacks.

Hey guys,
There are A LOT of people who play in the West Coast Beta servers that either are from overseas or otherwise have really high pings. Most times, there are players in there that are in the neighborhood of 200-300... but at times there are players with 600-800 pings. In most of these cases, they are people that warp around really bad or just lag to the point where you you can't hit them while they are moving around. There are also times where they peek a corner and you are waiting for them and yet, they peek and kill you without even being able to see them. For the people who actually LIVE in the States, or on the west coast, this doesn't make a very good gaming experience because, like right now in the server (1:15am Pacific time in the Dust2 server), all of the 200+ pingers have all stacked on one side and are just lag-killing all the lesser pingers on the other side. The playing field isn't even at all. We already have a hard time keeping teams even... this just makes it 10 times worse.
My question is, have you guys considered putting a ping limit on the server? Say, 125 or maybe even 150? Most players I see in there in that range don't tend to lag or it isn't as noticeable as the ones that are 200+. Is this a discussion that has taken place already? If so, what were the factors in the decision to not put a ping limit on the server (if you are able to say)?
Thanks for your time,
Charger
